Hi
Oh it's vitamins and such herbal stuff from my natural path. I do have some a very low dose lorezepam I guess I could dbl up. Saw my g.p. today and he dropped the bomb he is Is transitioning his practice to dermatology. So now I have to find a new doctor in the midst of this. Just finished filling out a form. I hope I get accepted.
My sister will be bringing me home. And my surgery should be no more than 1 hour and a 1/2. My surgery is day surgery. As long as everything is status quo.

Dear @sue417 - Thanks for the explanation. Perhaps it is not what you are missing (in terms of supplements) but the fact you are having to adjust to so many changes and so many NEW things - and all at the same time. I understand how with even the GP leaving, everything may appear even worse. I am sorry you are going through all of this; I understand how things are very frightening right now. Did you ask your transitioning doctor for a prescription for your anxiety? It may help you face all these changes.
How great to have your sister nearby and able to help you! Is she staying with you for at least a day or two? This surgery is no picnic, and you may need a little help as you recover.
Your surgery seems fairly straightforward and free of many complications. I guess you are not going to have any immediate reconstruction? Are you planning to do it later?
I had it immediately because my radiation oncologist told me it would be best to do it BEFORE radiation treatment.
HUGS,
D.
